Signs of fairy presence
An unexplained trembling or whispering of leaves
A whirl wind
The bending of grass blades with no one to be seen
The feeling of an insect walking through your hair,
when there is none. A rippling of the water when not caused by something tangible
Silliness and times of uncontrollable laughter
An unexplained loss of time
